Divider API

The API documentation of the Divider React component. Learn more about the props and the CSS customization points.

Import

import Divider from '@material-ui/core/Divider';
// or
import { Divider } from '@material-ui/core';

You can learn more about the difference by reading this guide.

Props

Name	Type	Default	Description
absolute	bool	false	Absolutely position the element.
classes	object		Override or extend the styles applied to the component. See CSS API below for more details.
component	elementType	'hr'	The component used for the root node. Either a string to use a DOM element or a component.

The ref is forwarded to the root element.

CSS

• Style sheet name: MuiDivider.
• Style sheet details:

Rule name	Global class	Description
root	.MuiDivider-root	Styles applied to the root element.
absolute	.MuiDivider-absolute	Styles applied to the root element if absolute={true}.
inset	.MuiDivider-inset	Styles applied to the root element if variant="inset".
light	.MuiDivider-light	Styles applied to the root element if light={true}.
middle	.MuiDivider-middle	Styles applied to the root element if variant="middle".

You can override the style of the component thanks to one of these customization points:

• With a rule name of the classes object prop.
• With a global class name.
• With a theme and an overrides property.

If that's not sufficient, you can check the implementation of the component for more detail.
